Rodney Munch posted:This was a documentary about skinheads or the kkk or something. I watched it once on TV when I was younger and I remember it being kinda funny. There was a part where all these rednecks were sitting around watching old WWII films and they saw this little kid playing the drums in a hitler parade. They then spent a good 5 minutes talking about the boy and how he "really has his poo poo together" and how they all wished they could be him. I just remember thinking "uh... dude. Its just a kid playing a drum. Are you people retarded?" Blood in the Face?

I have been trying to think of a movie all day and it finally occurred to me that this thread was here! I saw this on TV probably about 10 years ago. I think it was Australian and it was about a teacher and her students trying to escape from some guys who were trying to kill them. At the very end they overcame the guys somehow and it ends with showing these jars in the back of the classroom containing the bad guys' hearts or something. I asked my brother if he remembered it and he thinks I might be going crazy. Thanks for any help!

Sounds like Fortress - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091069/ I don't remember the part about the hearts, but it's been a while since I've seen it. Did some of the bad guys have Santa Claus masks?

Sci-fi/fantasy movie, made in the 1980's. I saw it on the SciFi Channel a long time ago. Some guy living in NYC thinks that he is in a fantasy world. I think Tom Hanks may have been in it, but it's probably just merging with my memories of the movie Big. edit: It's probably Mazes and Monsters. I'm sorry.

I read a movie plot outline on imdb awhile back, about a japanese warlord or someone of significant social rank who comes to the realization that people don't think he's as hot poo poo as he thought they did. He then presumably goes through a period of re-evaluating his life. It piqued my interest at the time, but obviously I forgot the title. I thought it was a Kurosawa film but looking through his credits on imdb isn't really bringing up anything like this as I remember. Sound familiar?

My family and I rented a cheesy sci-fi movie years and years ago, obviously a very low budget movie. I can't remember the name of the movie but our family has been making fun of the tagline for years, "6 inches with an attitude!" or something to that effect. The plot is this bad-rear end bounty hunter or something crash lands on earth, but the problem is earth is 5 times the size of his home planet, so the guy is like 6 inches tall. Anyone have a clue as to what this cheeseball flick is titled? I want to Netflix it for nostalgia's sake but can't remember the title.

I have a couple. The first movie I ever remember really terrifying me--to the point where I didn't sleep for days--was called "La Casa del Terror" in Spanish, but that was a poor translation. As I recall the original English title had something to do with living in a house... er, like Residence, I don't know. Anyway, there was this family that moved into a house that was !haunted. I remember there was a horrible squat gray stone statue over the front door, and it liked to decapitate people. There was also a scene where they break down a wall and find the corpse of a little girl chained to a wall, and they think the haunting was because the poor girl's spirit couldn't rest, but then it turns out she was really evil after all... unless I'm mixing it up with The Ring a bit too much. Anyway, I must have seen it around '98 or so (give or take a couple years), and I figure it must have been from the early-mid '90s. Help? I try searching but there's an old Mexican horror movie called "La Casa del Terror" that definitely isn't it. The second is a Spanish version of Cinderella. It was beautifully done--I started watching it because I thought it was funny, and then I fell in love with the actress playing Cinderella--I still have no idea who she was. It was Spanish as in from Spain, I'm pretty sure--I'm Mexican, and they had some strong but awesome Spanish accents (I've always wanted one). It looked oldish--maybe '80s. There was a terrible special effect where Cinderella would throw a nut or an acorn on the floor, and it would instantly be replaced by a gown or a dress. There was a scene where she dressed as a hunter and outshot the prince and his friends with a crossbow, but none of them realized she was a girl. I saw it on the local channel in Oaxaca, Mexico, which is why I at first assumed it would be terrible. At this point all I remember is that the girl was so absolutely beautiful that corny scenes which normally would have made me cringe made me smile. Note: it just occurred to me that it might have been called "Tres Avellanas para Cenicienta," only when I looked it up all I got was a blog where some dude said that it was a Czech movie. I can't find any more information on it.

I've got one that's been bugging me for days, but I have very little information. It's from a making of documentary or featurette, for a film released in the last probably 15 years. All I can remember is an actor jokingly claiming the director only hired him for his ability to vomit on command! I think the genre is horror, possibly horror comedy, but I might be wrong. If anyone can help me based on the pathetic amount of info I've given, I'll be forever in their debt!

After listening to the director of West Bank Story talk about the problems inherent in making a comedy about Israel/Palestine relations, it started me thinking about another one, from a few years ago (5-8, TOPS--I remember seeing ads at the Belcourt for it). I honestly don't remember much; I believe it was from the Palestinan point of view, and for some reason, I feel like a balloon played heavily in the trailer. The problem is, I never saw it--it looked pretty bizarre, but not uninteresting. Any idea what I'm talking about?

Here is another one, since you guys are so damned good at this. I think this was one of those Wide World of Disney movies that used to play on Sunday nights here in the states, so it was probably a made for TV movie. It involved a group of kids trying to rescue their dog from a (possibly evil) dog pound. There were like five kids. The leader, or maybe the leader and his sister get their dog kidnapped and put in the pound, so they decide to break him out. They have everybody dress up in black clothing. There is a fat and/or goofy kid that tells his mom that he's dressing that way for a costume party, and so she makes him wear his old superhero Halloween costume. At one point the kid is trying to hide, so he sits next to some barrels that have the same color scheme as his costume, and the bad guys don't notice. The only other thing I remember is that one of their friends was a guy who had two of those toy guns that shoot the little rubber plungers, and he was a very good shot. One scene from this movie was him sneaking in somewhere, and one of the guards/dogcatchers walks in, and the kid remembers he left the light on. He shoots one of his guns and manages to hit the switch, shutting off the light just in the nick of time. The dogcatcher guy shows up, looks around, then notices the plunger. He grabs it off the wall and walks out. I know that's a bit of a strange one, but any ideas?

Ok, I asked this in a previous incarnation of the thread but I don't actually expect anyone to get it based on my description. Nevertheless, its a movie my brother mentions whenever we're watching something horrible on tv that happens to have one funny joke in it. So the scene is one guy walking into some security controlled area were he does not belong. A security guard yells at him something along the lines of "You there! This is a secure area!" and he replies "Thats good to know, so many places are quite dangerous these days, thanks guys!" (or something, I've never seen it). The film itself is aparently pretty worthless but he'll be well impressed if I find out what it is, as he doesn't know the name.
